A vehicle has the following properties: wheelbase L = 3.5 m, front axle load Wf = 75, 000 N, rear axle load Wr = 55, 000 N. The cornering stiffnesses for the tires are given in Table 14.13. The vehicle is traveling at a speed of 40 km/hr and wishes to take a turn of RNS = 100 m. Calculate the steering and slip angles and the understeer gradient.
